Dental implants
Dental implants provide permanent, natural-looking solutions for missing teeth. Using surgical-grade titanium roots, we restore both function and aesthetics while preserving jawbone health. Ideal candidates include non-smokers with sufficient bone density and controlled systemic conditions. Our process includes comprehensive evaluation, implant placement, and crown integration for lasting results.
Invisalign treatment
Invisalign offers discreet teeth-straightening solutions using custom-made clear aligners. Our certified providers create personalized treatment plans with SmartTrack material and iTero Element 5D scanning technology. This method addresses crowding, bite issues, and sleep apnea while allowing normal eating and oral hygiene routines through removable aligners.
Root canal therapy
Advanced root canal procedures eliminate infected tissue while preserving natural teeth. We employ rotary instruments, 3D imaging, and laser technology for precise cleaning and sealing. Post-treatment restoration includes biocompatible materials and crowns to ensure long-term tooth stability and function.
Sleep apnea appliances
Custom-fitted SomnoDent appliances treat mild to moderate sleep apnea by maintaining airway patency. Our approach combines diagnostic imaging, home sleep testing, and jaw positioning analysis to create comfortable, effective solutions that improve sleep quality and reduce health risks.
Cosmetic dentistry
Comprehensive cosmetic services include veneers, teeth whitening, and gum contouring. Dr. Stange's fine arts background informs individualized smile design, focusing on symmetry and facial harmony. Treatments use durable materials and advanced techniques to achieve natural-looking, long-lasting aesthetic improvements.
